Looking forward to the next "Batman" movie? You might have a long wait ahead of you.

Our friends over at Batman-On-Film.com report that the next big-screen appearance of the Caped Crusader will come in 2015's rumored "Justice League" film. The character's next appearance wouldn't happen until "2017 … at the earliest."

Consider the report nothing more than a rumor for now, but BOF's a reliable outlet — it's entirely possible that there's something to this. That said, it's difficult to imagine WB feeling patient enough to wait five years until their next "Batman" movie, particularly when the "Dark Knight" trilogy was such a massive success, and their other superhero properties have never taken off at the same level.
